Used to cleanse surfaces and the air, eucalyptus essential oil can help promote feelings of relaxation and clear breathing.

Eucalyptus trees are tall, evergreen trees that grow up to 50 feet in height and are sometimes referred to as Gum Trees. The main chemical components of eucalyptus radiata are eucalyptol and alpha-terpineol, making it an ideal oil to promote feelings of clear breathing and open airways and for creating a soothing massage experience. Eucalyptus has purifying properties that can be beneficial for the skin and for cleansing surfaces and the air. Studies have shown that eucalyptus is effective in helping lessen tension. Eucalyptus can be found in mouth rinses to freshen breath and promote oral health.

Some of my favorite ways to use eucalyptus essential oil:
– Combine with Lemon and Peppermint in a spray bottle and use it to wipe down surfaces in your kitchen or bathroom
– Add one drop to moisturizer and apply to skin for revitalizing benefits.
– While showering, place a few drops in the hands, place over nose, and inhale deeply to invigorate and promote vitality

Eucalyptus essential oil blends well with:

Every essential oil has an emotional component. Eucalyptus essential oil is The Oil of Wellness. The strong medicinal aroma of Eucalyptus demonstrates its powerful effect upon the physical and emotional bodies. Eucalyptus essential oil supports the soul who is constantly facing illness. They may get well for times and seasons, only to return to a common cold, allergies or congestion in the sinuses and respiratory system. Eucalyptus addresses a deep emotional or spiritual issue of the need to be sick. It reveals patterns of thinking that continually create poor health. Such beliefs may include thoughts like, “I don’t deserve to be well,” “I am the sort of person that is always getting sick,” or “The only way I can get a break is to get sick.” Eucalyptus gives an individual courage to face these issues and beliefs. It encourage them to let go of their attachments to illness. Eucalyptus encourages individuals to take full responsibility for their own health. It bestows trust that one’s needs and desire can be met, even if they allow themselves to be well. Eucalyptus teaches individuals how to claim their wholeness and heal.
